  • Create tools and web-apps to help us automate and streamline manual clearance processes.
  • Propose tools and/or feature ideas to the team to improve processes.
  • Develop software for automated validation frameworks for system level testing in Hardware In the Loop (HIL), simulation environments, and post-processing of test data.
  • Develop and maintain dashboards to illustrate progress against targets and highlight focus areas.
  • Execute, triage, and debug automated verification and validation system tests.


Qualifications
  • B.S. or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related technical degree.
  • Experience developing automated test frameworks and tools for HIL and/or SIL.
  • Experience designing and developing automated dashboards using data visualization tools such as Grafana or Looker to monitor operational metrics.

  • Experience executing and debugging automated tests, preferably with embedded systems or Hardware-in-the-Loop.


Bonus Qualifications
  • Experience building tools and automation for verification and validation teams.
  • Experience building web-apps with streamlit.
  • Experience with CI and build systems (e.g. Bamboo, Buildkite, etc.)
  • Experience with the incorporation of AI technology into end-to-end test automation frameworks to improve efficiency and productivity.
  • Familiarity working with APIs in Jira, Polarion, Testrail and other similar tools.
